> Log4j2 currently accepts configurations with multiple <root> elements without errors or warnings. Based on multiple questions I've seen on StackOverflow, such configurations rarely work correctly.
> During initialization, Log4j2 should detect this problem and fail with an ERROR (or FATAL) message.
